Honestly farmer carrys are enough for my grip strength but zottman curls wreck your brachial muscle and make your forearm pop like crazy. Hammar curls are good to, and they do add size to the biceps I don't care what anybody says.

Unrelated but wtf how?
I was at 280kg deadlift and still my forearms were only 13" (7" wrists, 16.5" arms)
They only grew to 13.5" when I added crushing stuff with CoC, even then it's fucking shit. I do mixed grip.
I do lots of pulling, rows, pull ups. I use thick bars too. Fucking nothing.
They say those wrist rollers really work but I haven't had the chance yet to test it out so just tried it with the barbell and it hurts like fuck lol but no growth.

I wish I had 15" forearms, 16" is amazing. I can get to 17" arms no problem, lifting for 6 years, I was deadliting 200kg at 12.5" arms.
No I'm not a lanklet either, 5'11, I bench 170kg and squat 240kg at my peak lifts at a meet. I just cant get forearms to grow? Not enough volume??? what is it???

Forearms and Calfs are majority slow twitch muscles.
They are made for endurance and are built up by repetition more than weight. Ideally weight+high repetition= forearm gains

wrist roller if ya gotta isolate, but pause deadlifts (where you never fully lower the weight) have always been good for mine. Does anyone have any experience with shrugs and forearm development? Thinking of adding them to my pull day.

I fnish pull days with hammer curls and wrist roller. Used to do wrist curl but didn't see much results. Wrist roller however is the shit.

do standing calf raises with heavy dumbbells. superset those with shrugs if need be. your forearms should be on fire by the end of the exercise(s).

You can easily make a roller yourself:
Find stick, tie and fixate rope or chain to middle of stick, put carabiner on bottom of rope, add weight as needed.

Farmers carries you stupid fucks, how has no one mentioned them?

Pick up the heaviest thing you can grip in your gym, pick up two of them, one in each hand. Walk with them until you can't hold them anymore.

repeat as needed and your forearms will explode.

I roll 18 lb bars backwards, and do several sets of that every time I lift. Works great, strong forearms look cool as fuck
>>
Just using a pair of regular fat grips over the past month with most of my upper body work has seen a noticeable gain in forearms.
>>
>>37639525
pull-ups, sets of 3 to 5 till I can't do anymore sets

farmers walks, 3-5 sets till failure

repeat 3-4 times a week (I am trying to seriously improve my grip - it's limiting my deadlift by at least 30 lbs)

hang from a bar for time. small endurance based muscles like calves and forearms need a lot of time under tension to grow and not necessarily heavy weight. thats why people don't get so crazy results from deadlift. they help but you need to spend more time with the muscles engaged not just doing a heavy weight for 3 reps. hanging's also good for your shoulders.

Every morinig I do a 'morning warmup' type deal in which i include wrist mobility
wrist pushups:
>back of hand -> fist
>plam down -> 'ball of hand'

then 3 days a week:

CoC gripper work
>warmup
>3x5 worksets
>started with the T, now on 1.5

Forearm and hand mobility:
>look up mobility routines for guitar or piano (i play guitar, and these make a huge difference)
>I do that every day or so.

Not really concerned with 'massive forearms'. I figure if they are freakishly strong, they will be big as they need to be.

anything where grip strength matters, if you squeeze something hard in your hands you can see your forearms doing flexion and extension

chinups, pull a cable, climb a cable

climb rocks, cut wood with axe, play tennis
